Stop listening to people at ATS lol

ETA: although on a sidenote either the PM isn't all about giving ANY leeway on OOG situations or Trickett really doesn't know what's going on? Because if some of you recall I sent him the OOG Email asking to confirm it was indeed an ARG as some conspiracy theoriest sites had it pegged as legit... And this was the reply I got to that.

Good Morning Leyton,

Okay...

I have no idea what the hell has been happening lately.

I have my thoughts, but they turned up to be nothing of interest. Most likely all a major coincidence.

Attached is a picture of my favourite Gibson. You may find it interesting.

Have a decent day.

Regards,

- Andy .T.


The pic's below. I tried destegging it using interesting as the pw as it was italic, but to no avail.

I'm slightly creeped out now, tbh haha.

Edit: Could someone maybe blow up the bottom half and see if anything's written on the white strip at the end of the strings?

Also I got a reply from the Benefactors in regards to the email I wrote about the dashboard.rar

Quote:
Recruit 37,

You. As are many of you. Confused. The Unity understands this. All. Data. Is integral to your development. It is flawless. There is no corruption. They are the tools to which our system kindly supplies to us.

To be ungrateful. To be hasty. These are conditions...the system will not tolerate.

Do. Not. Display. Ungratefulness.

In time. You. Will. Know.

All. Of you...will know.

- Your Benefactors


So it seems I now have an actual number. I am recruit 37. Confused

On a sidenote S.P.I Why would it only happen when trying Tempus Fugit for me then? And I'm not the only one who got that gibber-code when typing it either.

I'm more concerened about the fact he didn't confirm nor deny TINAG when I legitimately showed concern about the ARG - There must be something in the pic.

I get the same gibber when I type it exactly as "Tempus Fugit"

This does all have an uncanny feel!!! the original implied idea was that andy was going to be a long game!!!.....now he dies tomorrow????

We are still missing big bits out of this?
why is the emphisis seeming to keep pointing to unity, 2 , pair???

No clue. But, I do have the feeling it has something to do w/ either unRARing the dashboard or destegging the Gibson.

I wanna press w/ Andy about the fax/email he got earlier today but I don't really want to respond until I've figured out his meaning of sending me the Gibson pic.

Edit: Just thinking, maybe this part of the email was his (I.G) way of confirming it?

Quote:

?

Edit 2: Fired off another email to Andy.

Quote:
Andy,

Nice pic do you actually own the Gib or just a fan of it? I'm quite a fan of guitars myself, own a Fender Telecaster. Not much good with it though haha... The photo you sent me seems a tad small though bud, is there anything specifically interesting I should maybe be checking out, in that pic?

Also read your blog again; seems quite serious. You mentioned remembering a face, did you get a photo w/ the email? Any chance I could see it (email)? I was intrigued...

You also seem to mention two as if you're sure it's only two people?

-L.S

I zoomed in on the guitar in paint, it's not a very good program, but I didn't see anything that looked like words.

I also went to the Gibson guitar site. I haven't been able to find that exact guitar yet. I don't know if that would help or not..

Of course they didn't this has been discussed and told to the ATS member who came here asking about it previously. And look, sorry, no offence... But this isn't "Some jokes made by a nolife student" - Nobody here seems to think there's any real 'legitimacy' involved. - We discuss it here because Unfiction (this forum) is for ARG's such as this. It's a GAME - And, what you're doing right now is trolling; please stop.

The guitar is a Epiphone model. Epiphone is a branch of Gibson.

Check link:

I tried to uncamouflage the image like Leyton, but no success.

Not saying you're wrong Zyril cos they look alike but there are a lot of differences, too. You sure it's the same brand of Guitar?

It looks a little different than the epiphone...

Why are there white note dots all over the bottom half?

Well, there are several Epiphones, but I think that really is an Epiphone, not the exact one but one of them..

Email back from Andy and he kind of confirms it's an epiphone and that it needs to be 'looked inside'... Someone needs to help me decipher this cos he's talking back and forth garble haha. Erm also is there anyway to tell if an email has bolded letters?

Leyton,

Thank god you've replied. A lot has happened over-night.

Listen, I've managed to secure a half day...just called it 'Family Business'. I'm packing up sticks
to Cornwall for a few days, and hopefully return when this has all blown over.

I spoke to my 'semi-boss' Martin Joyce about the threats I received this morning. He informed me to give HR a shout, as I'm positive two of these people that are involved, used to work here.

One of them was 'Dan'.

About the Gibson. It's a beauty alright...wish I could afford an Epihone...but...the time! Sad

I see you're trying to extract the answers from me...but who says that there's even something vaguely interesting about it? I don't recall sending that email?

It would be nice to know when you've had a look inside the guitar though. Actually to hold one. Epihone's are pretty classical, but in the hands of a specialist, they can unlock all kinds of modern details.

I'm off at half four.

Regards,

- Andi
